Consolidated Annual Report (2020 to 2021)
Ethiopia as a country is facing multiple and protracted disaster risks notably: droughts, flooding, locust infestations, landslides, conflicts, displacements, an occasional influx of refugees, and potential earthquakes; among others. In response to these risks, the Government of Ethiopia has adopted different policies and strategies, to respond to these crises.
The Ethiopian “National Policy and Strategy on Disaster Risk Management” (NPDRM) issued in 2013, provides direction for dealing with the prevention, preparedness and response to multi-hazards and management of disaster risks in the country. The Government has since developed a DRM Strategic Programme and Investment Framework (DRM-SPIF) that envisions reducing the impact of disasters through the establishment of a comprehensive and integrated DRM system. The Ethiopia/National Disaster Risk Management Commission (E/NDRMC) was created in 2016 to implement the NDRM policy by coordinating with government agencies at the Federal and regional states levels, and the other partners in the country.

INCEPTION REPORT
This inception report presents an overview of the Disaster Risk Management (DRM) situation in Ethiopia. It further describes in detail activities and work plans that are foreseen in the project as at the inception phase to prepare for smooth initiation of project activity implementation. The Technical Assistance Team (TAT) was mobilized on 3rd August and started with concrete plans to begin proposed activities during the inception phase in line with the requirements in the project Terms of Reference (ToR).
Though the inception phase formally ended on 31 August 2020, due to Covid-19, the TAT and the counterparts faced challenges in conducting meetings and planning sessions in time. This was situated by the necessity to physically travel to the five regions and conducting meetings in the capital Addis Ababa. This slightly delayed compilation of data and inception report than expected.
Accordingly, the project start-up and implementation is further compounded by delayed purchase of cars, motor bikes and office supplies. This has largely impacted the ability of project staff at NDRMC and regions to facilitate project planning and implementations. The TAT is proposing that if allowable, that NDRMC and regions be allowed to spend their contingency funds for car rentals to allow mobility of the project staff.

DRM and Gender Mainstreaming Workshop Report_June 2022
EDRMC organized a Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Gender Mainstreaming workshop for 2-4 June 2022, to sensitize the federal and regional experts on mainstreaming gender in DRM activities. As expected in the EU DDRM project contract documents, the implemented activities in the five regions of Amhara, Oromia, Sidama, Somalia, and SNNP require periodic DRM and gender mainstreaming trainings and guidelines to build the technical and strategic teams to guide overall project implementation throughout the period.
The EU DDRM action and documents envisaged that “Intervention packages to address the specific needs Result 1 Output 1.3 when climatic shocks occur while taking into account the gender aspects and the needs and interests of peoples living with disabilities as well as for conflict resolution mechanisms and package intervention for the integration of climate induced IDPs in the host communities”. Resolution of conflicts and gender empowerment will be among the priority topics.

However, due to various delays, the actual implementation of activities began later in 2020 and thus delayed the anticipated successive technical and strategic review meetings. This is the first formal internal joint monitoring and review mission conducted to highlight the technical, operational, and management specificities of the project. The project internal review will therefore periodically be conducted to assess areas of achievement; the challenges; and suggest areas for improvements regarding approaches, strategies, and implementation modalities to streamline operational and management decisions.

The joint review monitoring missions were conducted in three phases by three teams with mixed expertise (Project managers, EDRMC technical experts, and TA. The first phase entailed field missions conducted by three teams to 1) Oromia and Somali regions; 2) the Amhara region and 3) SNNP/Sidama regions, respectively. The second phase was a joint field visit to the Sidama region (all teams) and the Third phase was a joint days’ workshop to share lessons and provide technical, operational, and management feedback. The three teams upon completion of the specific joint missions provided reports during the workshop. Summary of the schedule and team below:
✓ Regions-specific field missions (3-4 days) – 13-16 June 2022
